Training & Careers

To follow are case studies focussing on initiatives run by the IOG for 14-16 year old students.

Initiative 1:

Pathfinder Project - Nottingham

The Pathfinder project in Nottingham, a curriculum-based scheme for 14-16 year olds considering their future career paths, has developed positively over the last 12 months. 

The government funded initiative was piloted by Nottingham LEA and Nottingham City Council, with the support of the IOG in 2004 and due to its success and demand from other LEA’s it is now expanding into other counties.

Initiative 2:

IOG Instructor Goes Back to School 

Click here to see the case study of a pilot training course, run for pupils at a secondary school in Bolton to give them a practical introduction to a career in grounds management.
